Junior Umpire Programs

[BigUmp56]

As with every year, the subject of the lack of competent umpires came up at both of our district meetings. We simply cannot cover all of these games. We try diligently to recruit other individuals to help us out, and cover these games, but we continue to fall short.

To improve on the situation, we are considering implementing a better junior umpire program.

Are their any well established junior umpire programs that you know of that may be able to help us along with guidelines to how their programs are run?

Do you have any personal suggestions on how we might go about implementing such a program?

As always, your thoughts are GREATLY appreciated!

You can contact me at my personal e-mail if you would like to give your suggestions, or post them here.
